President Uhuru Kenyatta has vowed that the ongoing fight against corruption is unstoppable.
Speaking in Kisumu during the burial ceremony of the late Dorcas Nyongo, who is the mother of Kisumu’s Anyang Nyong’o, Uhuru said there is nothing that would block his resolve to fight graft.
He added that all those who have looted tax payers' money will never enjoy their ill-gotten wealth under his watch.
"We must fix these issues first. Politics will come later. We must fix these vices so that the country can move forward as a stable, strong and harmonious nation where jobs can be created," Uhuru said in a statement issued by the State House.
He further called for political maturity, urging politicians to shun divisive politics as the only way to attract investors into the country.
"We want to attract long term investors where people can invest their money for between 15 to 20 years, and even over," the statement went further.
On the deceased, the president eulogized Mama Dorcas as a person who put in tremendous efforts in a bid make her locality a better place to live. This, he said, not only benefitted her immediate family but the entire community.
